Abstract
Kaufhold [5] calculated the Fourier coefficients of the Siegel's Eisenstein series of degree 2 and obtained its analytic continuation and functional equation. In this paper, we follow his procedure to obtain the analytic continuation and a functional equation of the Eisenstein series on quaternion half-space defined by Krieg [7]. S. Nagaoka has announced a similar result (see below).
